After starting the season on a four-match winless streak, New York has won
back-to-back games, while United is headed in the opposite direction having
lost three straight.

Henry netted his second goal of the campaign just before the half-hour mark
when he collected a pass from Dax McCarty and found room at the edge of the
area to curl a shot inside the right post, although goalkeeper Bill Hamid
should have done better.

Hamid kept out a close-range header from Tim Cahill in the 35th minute, but he
was picking the ball out of his net again one minute later.

A left-wing cross from Juninho was flicked on at the near post by Brandon
Barklage, allowing Olave to redirect the ball into the net from six yards for
his third goal of the year.

Olave nearly added to his total in the second half but volleyed the ball wide
from a tight angle, while New York goalkeeper Luis Robles was finally called
into action in the 72nd.

Robles first saved a deflected free kick from Lionard Pajoy before recovering
to keep out the rebound attempt of Carlos Ruiz.

It was the best chance United would get, and Henry nearly doubled his total in
the 81st with a low shot that struck the post.
